With a bit of the aftermath of PHP 5 being released, there are a few things coming to light. John Lim highlights some of these issues.

Looks as if the bug reports are coming in. Here's a serious one: HTTP authentication is broken. Expect a PHP 5.0.1 or 5.0.0 patch level 1 real soon now. There is also a link to the discussion over on Slashdot about the release - complete with both sides of the story.

Also of note, there is a new PHP 4 version released as well - PHP 4.3.8 created as (as far as I can see) a security-only release.
